Demolish

The demolishing of the 165-meter-high Mina Plaza Tower in Abu Dhabi has been recorded as a Guinness World Record for the controlled demolishing of the tallest building. The 144 floors spread over four towers were razed within 10 seconds by using 6,000 kg of plastic explosives. Reportedly, the Abu Dhabi towers were knocked down to make way for the second phase of the redevelopment of the Mina Zayed.
